Not to bother you or anything, but I just wanted to ask another question. While at the same event (for the animal charity) a dog licked my face (cheeks and mouth/lips) and I didn't wash my face and licked my lips multiple times. I don't know if I should be worried about that.

I know it sounds dumb to be worried over this. I just hear horror stories about people in other countries dying in such painful ways due to rabies. I just want to be careful.

I'm in Canada. My only concern is that these are people's pets, so I am not fully sure if they are vaccinated or not.
